(antiMusic) Welcome to Singled Out! where we ask artists to tell us the inside story of their latest single. Today Joey Stuckey who is a blind guitarist from Macon GA who works with members of Marshall Tucker, Allman Bros and others tells us about "Scratch That Itch" from his new EP "Ocean Side" which was just released on iTunes. We now turn it over to Joey for the story:

My Song "Scratch That Itch" is about the need to play and have music as part of my life! My main concept for this track, from my new "Oceanside" jazz Ep was to have a great groove on the bass guitar, which I played, reminiscent of Markus Miller and to have my friend Peter Factora, whom I got the privilege to work with while on tour in Hawaii, appear on a track doing his thing on the drums. I also then asked my friend Enigma to do a rap. This little tune has something for everyone, good melody, solid groove and a world music flavor brought home by Miguel Castro on congas.

Hearing is believing. Now that you know the story behind the song, listen to a sample for yourself and learn more about the album and Joey - right here!
